In Reply to: "Watching VHS tapes is akin to listening to Caruso on a Victrola... " posted by clarkjohnsen on May 23, 2001 at 16:50:40:
My experiences with Victrola are limited, to be sure, but pleasant nonetheless...***clark, surprised anyone watches VHS commercial tapes on a 100" screen
It actually works extremely well. When I first installed that screen I was eneasy about watching old movies on it - you expect it to look like a complete crap. Boy, was I in for a pleasant surprise!
The first one was "The Wages of Fear", B&W and a completely riveting experience.
This projector's line multiplier works pretty well on old material, giving it its best and pictures are pretty smooth.
That is also the reason I am keeping my older 4:3 projector, as there is virtually nothing to watch in the 16:9 format, and I would not want sidebars for 99.6% of our viewing. The way it is now, the whole screen is used and the effect is very pleasant - close to sitting in one of those art houses. I usually have the system run in a Stereo Surround mode, front three channels only. Works very well.
I think every movie buff must experience his favorite black and white films on a large proector screen. The image is beautiful, smooth and involving.
And that burning wicker man looked really scary on it...
